A complete table for every item would be lengthy, and a few brand names or handwritten entries need confirmation, particularly “Rathi,” “Themidrine,” “Neofach,” “Qmax P,” “Epid(o)sin,” and “Velitamide Bromide.” For accurate composition, it is best to handle one section at a time.

Important stock-room safety points

  • Do not interchange concentrated electrolytes such as potassium chloride, magnesium sulfate, calcium gluconate, and sodium bicarbonate without a written protocol and dilution check.
  • High-alert medicines in this list include noradrenaline, adrenaline, heparin, enoxaparin, insulin-related drugs, neuromuscular blockers, opioids, sedatives, anaesthetic agents, and concentrated electrolytes.
  • Antibiotics should be culture-guided where possible and adjusted for renal function, allergy history, infection site, and local antibiogram.
  • The unclear entries, especially Neofach, Qmax P (M), Trisol, Rathi, and the exact Themicaine formulation, need the pack photograph or manufacturer name before being entered into a final formulary.
